CUSF Landing Predictor - Tawhiri / Leaflet Version

Cambridge University Spaceflight landing predictor - a web-based tool for predicting the flight path and landing location of latex meteorological sounding balloons.

This fork of the original predictor contains a continuation of the original CUSF predictor, which utilises the Tawhiri API, and also uses Leaflet for mapping instead of Google Maps.

A live version of the predictor intended for non-commercial use is available at http://predict.sondehub.org/ , hosted by the Sondehub project.

If hosting this yourself, please note that it uses the Sondehub-hosted instance of Tawhiri. Please contact us to discuss fair usage of this API.
